TheBus was not too bad this morning, I was able to walk at a regular pace to the terminal and I am now enjoying a double espresso in the Premier Club lounge prior to boarding my flight to Lana'i.
Nanilei heads up to North Shore with her sister today, I probably will not see her until Saturday, when I go up there to join them.
Hopefully we get to sail on BIL's boat.

I skipped out of work early yesterday and we went to see Bohemian Rhapsody in IMAX, I think it was very well done.
There was even something in my eye almost twice. The actor playing Brian May really looked the part, a much better match than the actor playing Freddy.
I was not that impressed with IMAX versus the modern digital projection age, not really much visual difference anymore that I could discern, but the audio was superb, the surround was really noticable and the music was LOUD and clear, we had a great time.

It seems funny to me that you say "when I go up there." I think nothing of that drive to North Shore because it's like an everyday drive around here. It's the same when Len says he lives out in the country.

I'm hoping someone moderate enough to attract moderate Republicans runs against him, but not so moderate that they'd be considered Republican Lite.

Not many people remain in the center. My 3 hoped-for qualities:

1) Will be no more than 65 years old at the end of 2 presidential terms.
2) Center enough to get elected and have long coattails.
3) Inclusive with no intention to govern from Biblical rules. (I hope for someone grounded in a faith tradition.)

I wasn’t to repair the damage before adventuring into more progressive government.
